Overview

This tutorial explains how to set up a single-server test Code42 environment that simulates your production Code42 environment. You can use the test environment to perform upgrade and feature testing without impacting your production environment.

Import database dump using the Administration console

Import the database from desired location. Database dumps are ordered by date.

Click Submit. Two notifications appear:

"Database import submitted. Server will shut down."

"Server connection has been lost."

The server imports the selected database.

Select Reconnect to reload the administration console sign-in page.

Sign in to the administration console to verify your changes.

Step 4: Configure Store Points

The store points from your production Code42 environment will not function on your test enterprise server if the corresponding directories do not exist on the file system. To make your test enterprise server functions correctly, disable existing store points and create a new store point for testing.

Sign in to your test authority server's administration console.

Navigate to Destinations > Store Points.

Configure each existing store point to reject new archives:

Click the name of the store point.

From the action menu, select Reject New Archives.

Create a new store point for testing.

Navigate to Destinations > Servers.

Click the name of the test Code42 server.

From the action menu, select Add Store Point.

Configure store point settings:

Name: Enter a descriptive name.

Path: Enter the path to a directory that currently exists on the file system.The host Code42 server must have permission to write to this directory.
